Studio One Art Center Rehabilitation

Studio One is located in a century-old building that is a candidate for local landmark designation. Rehabilitating this community center has been a true community effort involving our collaboration with various City agencies, staff, instructors, students, the Friends of Studio One and the Landmarks Preservation Board. This cooperative spirit has not only resulted in a beautiful arts center, but has also garnered the team a PG&E Savings by Design Award for our efforts to incorporate sustainable materials and energy efficient design.
